Bayern wins 2-1 at Leverkusen in Bundesliga - 0 Comments

BERLIN — Bayern Munich needed a late own goal to scrape a 2-1 win at Bayer Leverkusen and move another step closer to the Bundesliga title on Saturday.

Mario Gomez put the visitors in front with a fine individual goal in the 37th minute, but Leverkusen improved after the break and Simon Rolfes duly equalized with 15 minutes remaining.

Bayern looked to be heading for its fifth draw of the season, only for the unfortunate Philipp Wollscheid to deflect Bastian Schweinsteiger's free kick into his own net with the back of his shoulder with three minutes left.
